Metaphor:

Life is spoken of as a battle that we must fight to survive.

A person's accomplishments are "footprints on the sands of time"

Simile:

"Still, like muffled drums, are beating / Funeral marches to the grave"

Alliteration:

"In the world's broad field of battle, / In the bivouac of Life, / Be not like dumb, driven cattle!"

Assonance:

"Still achieving, still pursuing"
